Earbuds for 30 or less

Hello all!

I have a friend of mine who needs a new set of earbuds. (His old Apple Earpods crapped out) He wants to spend 30 dollars or less (as the title says) He listens to electronic music for the most part and prefers a brighter sound signature (He said that he feels warmer sounding earbuds can sound muddy to him at times) I saw that the JLab Epic's have come down to 22 USD on Amazon, but I thought I should ask the forum here first. 

 

Thanks for the help!

Trust me. I have the Quadbeats 2  but the 3 are a slimmer design more clean looking. Comfy and really good sound production

RAM: 2x 4GB Samsung DDR3-1600 1.25V PSU: Corsair CX430 CASE: Enermax Ostrog Windowed STORAGE: PNY CS1111 120GB / Hitachi 1TB 7200RPM OS: Windows 10 Pro & macOS Sierra 10.12.3

I have never seen these. I do agree, they look really nice and subtle. Thank you for the suggestion!

I got the Quadbeat 2 with my G Flex 2, Those come with the G4 but work on all phones. They have amazing sound stage and have really good mids and bass for electronic music

I have to ship them to India. Are they reliable?

I've never owned them, but they have 12000 reviews and 4 stars so I assume they're pretty good.
